Planes are fast, cars....not so much

A rather bland Monday Morning Quarterback today from Peter King but as usual, he's good for a few comments that will make you want to castrate a lion...

Brett Favre flew from Green Bay to the Teterboro Airport in suburban New Jersey late last Tuesday afternoon, then was driven into New York to accept the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year award that night.

The first 756 miles of the trip, in the air, took 105 minutes.

The last eight miles of the trip, on the ground during rush hour, took 65 minutes.

That's 432 mph on phase one of the trip, 7 mph on the second leg.

Yeah, I never would have guessed that a plane travels faster than a car. And am I the only one who's disturbed by the fact that King counts the minutes on Favre's trips??

c. Whatever happened to Matt Leinart? Has he been kidnapped?

Leinart fractured his collarbone back in October and was placed on injured reserve. That's why Kurt Warner has been getting the starts. I dunno but you'd think that SI's Senior Football Writer would know this...

f. How, exactly, will NFL Films put a highlight film together for the Miami Dolphins?

Oh fuck off...

h. You are the luckiest man on the face of the earth this morning, Brandon Jacobs. Plaxico Burress and the officials bailed you out in a big way Sunday.

I really doubt that Brandon Jacobs should be considered the luckiest person on earth this morning. There were probably a countless amount of people involved in life or death situations yesterfday who should consider themselves lucky today. Not a guy playing a game...
